Media has lost the definition of the word 'lie'

NY Times:

In Swirl of ‘Untruths,’ Calling Out a Lie


Mr. Trump’s repeated baseless assertion about widespread voter fraud has challenged the news media to find words to describe it.
An honestly held belief is not a lie.  The media seems have lost the grasp of this fact.  It would just as logical for Trump to say the media is lying about vote fraud.  The two sides have their belief and probably the best way to resolve it is to have the investigation that Trump has suggested.

There is no doubt that there is voter fraud.  There have been numerous cases prosecuted including a woman who voted for Trump twice.  What is really in dispute is the scope of the fraud.  The Democrats resistance to voter integrity laws makes it more difficult to stop voter fraud.  It makes it harder to stop the busing of voters from one precinct to another to vote numerous times as was admitted to in a video of a Democrat in New York City.

The media has made little to no effort to explain why more people voted in Detroit precincts than were registered.  That came to light in the recount sponsored by liberal groups, but where is the media investigation of it.  Could it be from the same busing of voters that was discussed in New York City?  If it were happening in Republican precincts would the media think it worthy of an investigation?

There were reports that Democrats including President Obama were urging illegal immigrants to vote for Hillary Clinton.  California's driver's licenses for illegals would also facility illegal voting and some California politicians are eager to allow illegals to vote in local elections too.

All of this calls for an investigation.  The media should embrace it rather than ridicule it.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t...

Is the F-35 obsolete?

Headline USA: Pentagon Fires Back after Musk Calls Its Most Expensive Project ‘Obsolete’ 'Yeah, as I'm sure you can appreciate, Mr. Musk is, currently, a private citizen, I'm not going to make any comments about what a private citizen may have to say about the F-35....'   ... ... Drones appear to be replacing jets for many operations.  The Russia-Ukraine war is an example of that.  Drones are often hard to detect and can be used for intelligence operations as well as for attacking enemy targets.  It would not surprise me to see drones engaging other drones in combat.  They also cost much less than manned fighters.
